Compound Formation in Karachay-Balkar: Implications for the marker –sI

Year 2017, , 21 - 41, 29.12.2017

Abstract

This paper discusses morphological, phonological, semantic
and syntactic properties of compound formation in Karachay-Balkar with a
special focus on Noun-Noun compounds which surface with or without marker –sI and sheds new light on compound
formation in Turkish. In line with Öztürk and Taylan (2016), we suggest that –sI signals the presence of an argument
being the head of functional head nP. Karachay-Balkar is more restrictive than
Turkish in that –sI surfaces only
with nouns that are inherently transitive. In this paper we also focus on the
function of –sI in genitive
possessive constructions. Drawing on compounds in Karachay-Balkar and Turkish,
we conclude that although –sI
introduces an argument in both genitive possessive constructions and compounds,
what appears on the head noun in genitive possessive constructions is
possessive agreement marker on a par with first and second person agreement
markers

Karaçay-Malkar Bileşik Sözcük Oluşumu: -sI belirtici için sonuçlar

Year 2017, , 21 - 41, 29.12.2017

Abstract

Bu makale Karaçay-Malkar dilinde özellikle Ad-Ad bileşik sözcüklerinin, ki bu sözcükler -sI belirticisi ile veya -sI belirticisiz ortaya çıkarlar, biçimbilimsel, sesbilimsel, anlambilimsel ve sözdizimsel özelliklerini inceler. Makale aynı zamanda Türkçe bileşik sözcük oluşumu için de aydınlatıcıdır. Öztürk ve Taylan (2006) ile aynı doğrultuda -sI belirticisinin Karaçay-Malkar dilinde nP bağdaştırmasının başı olarak katılan varlığını işaret ettiğini savunuyoruz. Bununla birlikte Karaçay-Malkar Türkçeden daha sınırlayıcıdır çünkü -sI belirtici sadece özü itibariyle geçişli sözcüklere eklenir. Bu makalede aynı zamanda genitif-ilgi yapılarında -sI belirticisinin işlevini de sorguluyoruz. Karaçay-Malkar ve Türkçe bileşik sözcüklere dayanarak -sI belirticisinin hem bileşik sözcüklerde hem de genitif-iyelik yapılarında katılanı getiren yapı olarak görmekle birlikte genitif-iyelik yapılarındaki -sI belirticisinin tıpkı birinci ve ikinci şahıs uyum eklerinde olduğu gibi kişi uyum eki olduğunu savunuyoruz.
